If you are '.'thftwise qualified i you have the right to vote. ™ L.i 11 It's funny that some people get mad ( if you say they are "aristocrats" and t don't like it any better it you say they are not. Now how can you please such people? < —- It looks like a coal strike is com- i tag soon and if it does the supply of ; coal on hand in Decatur will prove a t God send. There are a lot of reasons \ tor getting in the coal apparently. I — - The: present city administration - has made a good record and needs r no defense and again not a one of t them is a candidate in the present campaign. Come on ttftr. and women democrats of Decatur. Work hard. There are , only a few days left in the campaign and we want to put this community ba.k where it belongs in the <Kdisputed majority rank. , DON'T FORGET THE SMOKER AND POLITICAL MEETING K)R THE DEMOCRATIC MEN AT HEADQUARTERS THURSDAY . NIGHT AT EIGHT O'CLOCK- A GOOD TIME It is cenccded that DeV< -- w:u ft! elected mayor next Tuesday. Give him a council composed of who will work him and not against and you will secure an administration which will be productive of g the best conditions for the city. - If the republicans wish to '•clean house" they should start olis where the tax board and a him dred other commissions really con- . troll affairs of the stare. counties townships and cities. There s a heap to do there. ..ax. for cc-ScL _ are making a thorough canvass and they teL you face to face what > they hope to do. They are honest. ; capable and trustworthy and they will serve you if elected in a manner that will prove satisfactory. j ============= j It is reported that the republican candidates are soon to put out a final broadside, showing want a bum . city this is and charging it all to the . present administration. Let er come. If it loses as many votes for . them as the first one did, they wont have many left. Those who are insystiag that "the only few who can run the city as we ' run our business" have any chance to win are the dyed in the wool standpatters who are try'Bg to put one over o® you. Th* people have not yet for gotten the many unredeemed pledges made last year and they will take nc forth er chances. DeVoss suits a great majority of the voters in this community. He and the others er. the ticket with-him are of Ute safe and sane brand, nothing cranky or « pasmodic about them. They will give you a good administration without frills or fuss or flutter and that s what you want. They do not promise you a tot of changes that cannot be put ial© practice. The city plant in Decatur is going big these days, the amount of electricity beefcg mM now i a the largest in history and the beauty of it U that the plant now we?’ equipped cas handle every demand- The improvemenu made ds'-ey »ise pa« year

were expensive but we have them; ' and we are ready for huaineaa when ' it cornea. We are not hearing any accusations ' that the laws have not been enforced 'in Decatur. On the other hand those who are half way fr.lr admit, that con _ ditions here are far superior to those I in most cities of the same else. If that is true and we believe it. then those who have thus conducted affairs in this city, deserve your commenda tion. and your support. Look out for eleventh hour propaganda put out to influence the voters. If the republican candidates have ftrv argument to make, they should have produced it two weeks ago or more and not at the last minute. It never pays to be "slick" in politics. people long ago became too wise 1 to pay much attention to silly last utluute charges taking advantage of opponents. Are you certain any body wants the city run like your business. It never has been done and probably never , will be for the city belongs to all the 0 people and they want it operated all : the time, not now and then. They 1 want it operated at the lowest cost ; but they also want things and when ( they demand it. origin to have it. There's a heap of difference between running a ifty and running your busi- 1 ( ness. o The Tri-state Merchants liked the hospitality shown them here yester- ] .ft* said s Much credit is due Mr. Niblick and Mr. Kuebler for bring* :n- the meeting ftre and for the splendid manner in which they entertained I their guests.

It is whispered now that the "sedaners" are to close the season with a big "pink tea" and extra siie wafers, an which ought to ' line up every millionaire in town for the republicans. Voters are invited to attend the i. roocratic meeting to be held at headquarters tomorrow night. It wtli be an old fashioned smoker and speakfest for the men voters.
